Imagine this: you just had an amazing party, you hop on your bike, and suddenly everything reacts slower. That is exactly what you will experience with the VR headset at the Augst Culture Festival in Stein. And yes, bystanders watch along live. So expect laughter and shocked faces.

- At 4 to 5 drinks your chance of an accident is already 4x higher
- XTC makes you feel alert, but in reality you are not
The BOB campaign team will also be there to help you plan a safe trip home. Think about designating a sober driver, booking a taxi, or taking public transport. And if you arrange that beforehand? You get a fun gadget to take home! 🎁
